Paris, Miy 4 It is reported on oood
authority that the naval authorities are
receiving constantly throating letters
from sailorr of an:i-militarist views. A
warning has reached the government
that the anarchists of Toulon were
boasting that they had selected six men
from among the seamen, engine room
hands and gunners on board of each
battleship and cruiser of the Mediterran
ean squadron, who had taken an oath to
render the ships useless at a given signal
by tempering with some vital part.
It is said, that these men have also
been directed to steal ammunition when
possible and cause explosions. Special
measures have been taken by the naval
authorities to prevent the carrying out of
these plans. The toaedo lieutenant of
every ship has bean ordered to keep all
detonators and catridges and caps under
lock and key in his own cabin." All sus
pected persons are closely watched.
